LOS ANGELES – During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Jessica Simpson addressed a wide range of topics from her disappointment with psycho-
therapy to the strange effect her celebrity has on men. She even attempted a joke, telling a startled-looking Ms. DeGeneres at one point, “You know, Helen, I seem to scare away guys too.”
The highlights, in case you forgot to TiVo.
On psychotherapy: “I visited a therapist to find out if the rumors that my marriage was in trouble were true. All the shrink did was ask me a lot of questions—how I felt about Nick, stuff like that. I already knew how I felt. I just wanted to know if the rumors were true. I could have gotten better answers from a palm reader or from throwing the Kabbalah. No wonder Tom Cruise makes fun of therapists.”
On prenuptial agreements: “I didn’t sign one before I married Nick because I don’t believe in prenuptial sex. I took a virginity pledge the year I was in high school, and I thought the pre-
nuptial agreement was an attempt by Nick to get around that pledge. I might have confused prenuptial with premarital because they both start with the same suffix.”
On herself: “I’m proud of the marriage I had. It made me who I am right now, and right now who I am . . . I am so in love with that person. I am so happy with who I am. It’s all about the journey to self-love and being happy with loving yourself for who you are.”
On her new CD: A Public Affair is kind of a raunchy title in a way because I’m trying to trick people into buying it because sex sells, but it’s not about that at all. It’s really a pop-opera about Brigitte Bardot. I was actually watching a Brigitte Bardot special, and it was like about how her life was always a public affair, and that’s how I felt at that very moment . . . even though I was watching television by myself, I felt as if the world was watching me through the television. I’m glad I still had my make-up on.”
In other news, more than a dozen stingrays and several books by Germaine Greer have been found mutilated on Australia’s eastern coast since Steve Irwin’s death last week, prompting fears that Irwin’s fans are exacting their revenge on the normally docile stingray and the seldom docile Ms. Greer.
